You Tube Video �How To� http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0-QnXPLVe0 (Attention: TadzOrz, beaten again, damn it)
South Aust Retail Outlet http://www.derek.com.au/holts.html (half way down page)
New South Wales Distributor http://www.mmpindustrial.com.au/mmp_products/
Dont bother ringing the NSW Distributor other than Technical Advice, and they're closed for the holidays anyway.
HOLTS DUPLI-COLOR PRODUCTS (USA) are a tad more expensive than your average products because they contain high tech chemicals (Ceramic Resins) in their composition,and hence you wont find them on every Auto Shop shelf.
However most Repco - Autobarn - Supercheap - Bursons etc can order it in for you.
Using ordinary Brake Spray Paint into a can and then brush painting it on the caliper is not a proper method, it's way to thin out of a spray can and hence to many coats are needed to give proper coverage that will last with some longevity.
Cheers: Sam.
PS: This Caliper Kit contains everything you need "To Do"
Has anyone tried this stuff yet?
there is also http://www.ppc.au.com/kits5.htm that I have been looking into.
Last time I painted the calipers on my old car I used a can of caliper paint from SuperCheap and after a few months it looked SuperCheap lol.

Found this link regarding the painting of calipers.
The first item on the page about a spray on car bra looks interesting. Haven't found anything more about it tho in regards to what if anything it will do to your paint.
